  • Can't complete five innings
    Paddack allowed three runs on five hits and three walks while striking out three over 4.2 innings in a no-decision versus the Athletics on Friday.

    Advice: Paddack again struggled against the Athletics, though it wasn't as bad as his last start, in which he allowed five runs over 2.1 innings. The right-hander has a poor 5.29 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 70:18 K:BB over 78.1 innings through 15 starts this season. He's projected to make his next start on the road in Arizona, though he hasn't pitched well enough to draw much positive attention in fantasy. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:22 pm
     
  • Bounces back with quality start
    Estes allowed two runs on five hits and a walk while striking out one over six innings in a no-decision versus the Twins on Friday.

    Advice: Estes was tagged for six runs over 2.2 innings in his previous start at Minnesota, but he responded with his second quality start in eight outings this season. The downside was his single strikeout, which was a season low for the right-hander. He's now at a 5.53 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 31:10 K:BB over 40.2 innings. Estes is projected to make his next start on the road versus the Angels. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:13 pm
     
  • Enyel De Los Santos gets five-out save vs. Brewers
    Enyel De Los Santos got the final five outs to get a save against the Brewers on Friday.

    Advice: De Los Santos entered when the score was 8-5, so even though the Padres ended up winning by four, it’s still a save situation for the 28-year-old. It’s the first of the season for the right-hander, and it’s unlikely he sees many more chances going forward. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:00 pm
     
  • Colin Rea ineffective in start against Padres
    Colin Rea gave up five runs in 5 1/3 innings against the Padres on Friday.

    Advice: Rea gave up two homers and four more hits — six total, for those who don’t feel like doing math right now — and he didn’t get a single strikeout while issuing two walks. It was a poor outing for the 33-year-old, but one that didn’t affect his win-loss record because of the run support San Diego gave him Friday night. He’ll take a 3.62 ERA into a schedule start against the Rangers. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:00 pm
     
  • Ohtani gets Tungsten O’Doyle’d against former team
    Shohei Ohtani homered and reached four times in a 3-2 loss to the Angels on Friday in 10 innings.

    Advice: We’re used to seeing those type of efforts from Ohtani being wasted, but usually it was for the Angels, not against them. The 29-year-old absolutely destroyed a solo blast off Matt Moore in the fifth for his 22nd homer of the year and 55th RBI of the season. The only blemish was a caught stealing for Ohtani, but that was just the second of the season. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:56 pm
     
  • Trevor Rogers holds Mariners to two runs
    Trevor Rogers held the Mariners to two runs in 6 1/3 innings Friday in a no-decision.

    Advice: Rogers has a 3.29 ERA over his last seven starts, lowering his season mark from 6.57 to 4.90. Still, he’s a tough sell in mixed leagues with his middling strikeout rate while being back by a lousy team. The Marlins’ win tonight was just their second in the 15 games that Rogers has started. Of course, he wasn’t involved in the decision, so he remains 1-8. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:56 pm
     
  • Landon Knack fires five scoreless against Angels
    Landon Knack didn’t give up a run while working five innings in his start Friday against the Angels.

    Advice: Knack was called up to start Friday’s opener against the Angels, and he pitched effectively. The 26-year-old allowed just two hits, struck out two and issued two free passes with 48-of-73 pitches landing for strikes. The right-hander has likely earned another start with this effort, but nothing is set in stone. Depending on the matchup, Knack is absolutely worth consideration for fantasy players going forward.

  • Set to start Saturday
    Anderson will start Saturday's game against the Mariners, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Anderson made his first big-league start of the season June 14 and gave up four earned runs across only two innings of work. He's worked longer stints while at Triple-A Jacksonville, so it's possible that he could pitch deep enough into the game to be eligible for the win if he can find more effectiveness. Anderson is not on the Marlins' roster, so a formal roster move will have to occur prior to Saturday's game. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:40 pm

  • Headed for injured list
    Toro suffered a strained hamstring Friday and will be placed on the injured list, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Toro was held out of the lineup earlier in the week with a shoulder issue and returned to the lineup Friday. He suffered an unrelated hamstring injury and will now be sidelined for at least the next 10 days. Tyler Nevin and Aledmys Diaz figure to see increased playing time. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:27 pm
